Blak Ember isn’t just another curry ketchup, it’s a deeply personal sauce with a story to tell. Inspired by generations of New Zealand mothers, and crafted as a tribute to a dear family friend, this rich, curried tomato sauce delivers warmth, balance and soul.

You’ll taste the natural sweetness of ripe tomatoes, followed by fragrant curry spices and a vinegary bite that brings it all together. Then comes the low flicker of habanero heat, the ember that lingers. It’s savoury, sweet, spiced and unforgettable.

Blak Ember pairs beautifully with everyday classics, think eggs, sausages, bacon, fish fingers, burgers and toasties, but it also adds real character to roasted veg, cheesy melts, or your favourite dipping platter. There’s a reason this sauce was kept a secret for so long.
